Hi David,

A missing folder in a working copy is a folder that's present in the
repositoty, but not in the working copy.

Given that you mention changes inside the folder, that implies
something else might be going on.  If the 'missing' folder contains
any characters with accents, you've run into a problem in Versions
that's caused by the way Mac OS X stores file names with special
characters.

If that's not the case, please open your working copy up in the
Finder, or look at its contents in the Terminal.  You should see that
the 'missing' folder is indeed missing in your working copy.  To get
it back, all you have to do is select the folder above it (the one
that used to contain the missing folder) in the Versions Browse view
and hit 'Update'.  This will update everything inside that folder,
which also re-fetches any missing items below it from the repository.

You cannot update the missing folder itself (by selecting it in the
Browse view), because right now it doesn't exist in your working
copy.  So trying to do that will result in a more or less cryptic
error.  Basically, whenever you run into those kinds of things in
Subversion, it's helpful to keep in mind that every file and folder is
always 'managed' or 'controlled' by the folder that contains it.

If somehow this doesn't out work for you, please drop me an email with
a screenshot of the Browse view off-list and we'll figure it out
together.

Cheers!
- Dirk
